Thread: 1920 leafs with trades
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>mhockey91</b></div><div>Exactly. I agree 100%. Aside from this year he hasn’t been outstanding. He doesn’t deserve Matthews money imo</div></div>

Lots of centers have gotten big paydays off their ELC's... seems like it's a little harder to find elite wingers to compare.

Kane's contract coming off his ELC (1 cup win, 72+70+88 pts in 1+2+3 seasons, 0.94 ppg, Calder trophy) is equal to a 5 x 9.2m deal at next year's cap.

Gaudreau off his ELC (64+78 pts in 2+3 seasons, 0.89 ppg) would be equal to 6 x 7.68m deal at next year's cap.

Marner (61+69+97 in 1+2+3 seasons, 0.93 ppg) would probably fall somewhere in between those two...

maybe

5 x 8.5m
6 x 9.0m
7 x 9.5m
8 x 10.0m

but I really don't know how the scale slides as you add more UFA years tbh. Either way, I don't see any AAV eclipsing $11 and if it's $10 or more, I think the Leafs are getting burned.
